Obama:”I was a little puzzled by the frenzy that I set off with what I thought was a pretty innocuous statement”
By
Susan Johnson
He’s still not saying what he meant by refined and it’s surprising that he doesn’t get that he has to be careful in choosing his words. His position means something and he can’t be imprecise and keep people guessing. If he’s shifting positions, the voters have a right to know: “For me to say that…

By
Susan Johnson
I think that we all (those on both the left and the right and even you fence sitters in the center) can agree that this is a good thing: American and Iraqi forces are driving Al-Qaeda in Iraq out of its last redoubt in the north of the country in the culmination of one of…

In the UK of course. Muslims consider dogs unclean: Where Muslims object, officers will be obliged to use sniffer dogs only in exceptional cases. Where dogs are used, they will have to wear bootees with rubber soles. “We are trying to ensure that police forces are aware of sensitivities that people can have with the…
CNN Poll: “A growing number of Clinton supporters polled say they may stay home in November”

Susan Johnson

Susan Johnson
OOPS! You saw that coming, didn’t you? Nearly a week after his controversial “Face the Nation” appearance last Sunday, retired Army Gen. Wesley Clark is taking a break from the presidential campaign — but many Democratic insiders think he has already been crossed off the list of Barack Obama’s potential running mates. […] “On a…
Two boys were disciplined for not praying to Allah
By
Susan Johnson
No, not in an Islamic nation but in the UK, of course. So, they don’t have freedom of speech, they don’t have the right to bear arms and now they appear to be sadly lacking freedom of religion: “Making them pray to Allah, who isn’t who they worship, is wrong and what got me is…
Knife crime has replaced terrorism as priority in London

Susan Johnson
Not surprising since they have band handguns. And those of you who want to get rid of handguns to end gang violence, might want to really take a good look at what’s going on in England. You can take away the weapon but you won’t stop the killing: Sir Paul’s announcement came after a 16-year-old…

By
Susan Johnson
The day we celebrate our freedom from the tyranny of the crown and that last story I posted should help remind all of us why we celebrate today. Our freedom of speech is recognized and protected in this great nation and we should be thankful. I hope everyone enjoys their day with family and friends…
Don’t call white people “honkies” in England…
By
Susan Johnson
You’ll get arrested even if you’re white: He said: ‘I was outside the Oracle Shopping Centre and as a joke started pushing and rattling one of the bicycles that was locked up outside, as I’d had a few drinks. ‘The security guards told me to move on and that’s when I made the comment –…
